my car's beginning to feel older now :-)
- the suspension is annoying now as i intentionally take longer routes to avoid speed bumps in parking lots.
- the engine isn't silent when idling anymore (back then i could think the engine was off, then turn the ignition again only to hate myself afterwards!)
- the car doesn't pick up like b4 when i step on my gas
- the effect of having the ac on is now more noticeable on the car's performance
- i hear more wind noise while on the highway than i used to

coupled with the usual tranny and brake problems occuring within the same period, my car's about to be re-christened from baby (to the other b word).

what things do u think i should check out b4 the next maintenance (90K) which is @ least 7 months away?

mine has 128k and feels like new (a little louder due to comptech exhaust) but like new.

as for yours mabe a tune up? have them check to see if you need new shocks? mine are original and still in perfect shape

i'm having the same problems.. i'm hearing rattling and knocking all over the place because it feels like i nail bumps.. i find myself avoiding bumpy roads.. didn't used to be like that.. acura of boston says my shocks aren't leaky, but i dunno.. doesn't feel like the same ride.. anyone got some insight?

this is why i leased my TLS before it gets old it goes back..........Just my opinion....Peace

u have a point there. however the leasing thing has limits. and i hate having limits on such stuff like my ride and my accomodation! when i have a car, i wanna drive as long as i want and do whatever i want to the car.
